David Edwards Posted September 29, 2017 Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 The Triumph parts world seems to have hit a significant dearth of stainless steel wing beading. This presents me with something of a problem when it comes to reassembling the restored rear wings and associated parts on my TR 3. Any suggestions as to where I can source new or second hand beading would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted September 29, 2017 Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 Hi David, I understand that the person making these for Moss has retired. He probably supplied others. I would have thought somebody would have taken over his business. Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tonyloz Posted September 29, 2017 Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 Hi David Just had the same problem TR shop had them in but had doubled the price due to scarcity! Rang SC parts and bought them from there...they are from the german company Bastuk and fit great This was only 2 weeks ago Hope this helps Tony Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stuart Posted September 29, 2017 Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 I think you will find they are all made by the same company regardless of where they come from and as it stands when they are gone that will be it until someone gets the rights sorted.

somefrenchTr3guy Posted September 29, 2017 Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 David, also if you don't mind the brexit you may ask Betaset, a french supplier: https://www.betaset.fr/structure-/920-kit-joncs-d-ailes.html Sounds like the beading is available right now?
